    My dad and our neighbour took turns cutting the grass for 15 years until we moved. It wasn't a big deal. I mean, my sister used to cut the grass a lot of the time since she was ten with one of those awful manual lawnmowers.

    I find it difficult to use the words 'cut' and 'grass'. :)
    How about "shred" and "grass"?

    I think the OP is just jealous that the grass is greener on the other side.

    It was a nicer shade until they got rid of it....

    There is house down the street that just put loose stone over there bit and the neighbours bit...... Now all the weeds are growing through it and he has divided it up with a little wooden fence..... looks ****e!

    The things people do so they don't have to mow there lawn..

    Is that better Wishbone Ash ;)

    If I cut my neighbour's grass and don't cut mine then I'm optimistic.

    When I lived in Jamaica, my next door neighbour had loads of grass growing out his back. So every now and then I went out and cut down a couple of plants. Luckily, he was too stoned to notice.

    Whenever I do my own grass, I would do my neighbours grass if it seems to be getting a bit on the long side - and vice versa.

    We are the sicking neighbours that bring each others wheelie-bins in too, and bandage each others kids boo-boos.

    We have never been in each others houses, theres an unspoken agreement that we like our privacy and to keep our homes in order.

    Tut tut... Im ashamed of you all..

    Surely everyone knows that modern day language now means that

    "Don't go cutting your neighbours lawn"

    was once termed as...

    "Thou shall not covet thy neighbours wife"

    So those of you that cut your neighbours lawn and expect your neighbour to reciprocate are obviously closet swingers... :eek:

    lol


    We dont expect each other to do it. We simply both like the front of our homes presentable. Besides, I dont think she fancies my other half.

    Would have to agree though... suffering from a wee bit of OCD there is no way I could cut my grass and leave theirs...

    Plus its just plain rude in my opinion.. kinda like "Mine is better than yours".. I hate those people... probably because im better than them... :D

    We have a lawn but we're renting and don't bother cutting it. Tbh, it's looks disgracful, weeds everywhere! :o

    The neighbour is trying to sell their house and we aren't exactly helping them with prospective buyers so they cut it for us and we do nothing in return

    Laziness ftw!
